Egypt is going through a tough transition and journalists
are paying a considerable toll. Since the July 3 removal of President Mohamed
Morsi, at least five journalists have been killed, 30 assaulted, and 11 news
outlets raided. CPJ has documented a total of 44 cases of detention, and at
least five journalists remain behind bars. The attacks on the press come amid a
broad campaign by the interim military-led government to limit coverage of the
Muslim Brotherhood and force the media to toe the official line.
